Today was a circular tour starting and finishing at the Manor House Hotel in Moreton-in-Marsh. Despite the traffic I was there at 10:00 to meet Paula, Jennings and Sharon. The sun was shining and it promised to be a lovely day.
We stopped briefly just to look at the house from the outside.
We got out of the car to wander around St Mary's Church in Swinbrook. And to get a look at the graves of three of the notorious Mitford sisters.
A meander down the high street before meeting up to walk around the 'Wool' Church of St James.
We arrived a lunchtime and went straight to the cafe. It was a pleasure to sit and chat over some food. Thank you very much for treating me. I am so glad that the castle was such a big hit with you.
As time was getting on we drove slowly through Broadway just stopping long enough to get a photo of the Lygon Arms.
Another slow drive through Chipping Campden. Stopping briefly to get picture of the thatched houses.
It was a brief visit to Stow-on-the-Wold. Another quick stop to get some photos of the Porch House - the oldest Inn in England dated 947 AD!

It was now time to head back to the hotel. I had such a lovely, memorable, day with the three of you.
